It works by rewriting (internally - not in headers etc) the address to
remove the extension.
I tend to just add suffix handling to all directors (or local routers
for those on exim 4), as in
http://www.exim.org/exim-html-4.00/doc/html/spec_41.html#IX1728
[Steaming hot exim 4 manual reference :-) ]
I do this on all directors (OK I admit it - I haven't updated to exim 4)
other than maybe some of the alias ones... depends on what exactly I'm
trying to do... you can pass the suffixes through the aliases if you try
hard :-)
You also then end up with the suffix to play with separately within your
filter file.
